This was the worst self help book disguised as fiction ever. Author beats you over the head with cliches and still doesn’t manage to leave a coherent message. I’m also really not a fan of the message about how one goes about dealing with depression and suicidality. These aren’t things you can just change with your outlook. Main character is boring and really doesn’t have a lot of distinctive traits. Super bleh book, only finished because I paid for it on audible.

Would you have done anything different if you had The chance to undo your regrets?
I'm sobbing now I finished this book it was another good book by Matt haig and definitely  one I'll be talking about for a very long time.
Huge flirting with nora was so cute

"The sex turned out to be disappointing"
"You are just a Mechanism"
This book is sooo good
This book made me fall in love with the charcters and felt the stories I would recommend  this to everyone  I know  especially  if you don't believe  you should be here, you are loved and I'm glad you are alive.
I'm so glad joe got sober and he became the person he needed to be😭

This book was so inspiring and hit me hard unfortunately  I know how nora felt throughout This book, and some of the topics hit home for me, the best advice I can give any reader is please take care of yourself  after reading this there is plenty of heavy topics
